“Sam & Cat is the perfect vehicle to showcase the amazing chemistry and comedic talents of Jennette and Ariana,” said Russell Hicks, President, Content Development and Production, Nickelodeon. “Fans will love seeing two of their favorite Nick characters back in action in this wild and hilarious comedy.”

In the series premiere, total opposites Sam Puckett and Cat Valentine first meet when a wild predicament lands both girls in the back of a moving garbage truck. After quickly becoming friends and roommates, they find themselves babysitting three younger kids, which give Sam and Cat the idea to start Sam & Cat's Super Rockin' Fun-Time Babysitting Service.

Beginning June 7, new episodes of Sam & Cat are available on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Xbox Video, Vdio, PlayStation Store, Samsung Media Hub and Vudu. Viewers can visit Nick.com/SamandCat to access polls, photo galleries, interviews with the cast and video playlists. In addition, Sam & Cat super-fans can log on to the site to relive the girls’ funniest moments from iCarly and Victorious. As a bonus, iTunes will discount all seasons of iCarly and Victorious beginning June 3 through June 11.

Best known for her comedic portrayal of Sam Puckett on the mega-hit iCarly, McCurdy recently wrapped production on Nickelodeon’s forthcoming original TV movie Swindle. In addition to starring in the Nick original TV movie Best Player, McCurdy has also guest-starred on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Strong Medicine,Law & Order: SVU, Medium and Judging Amy.

Prior to garnering attention as the beloved character Cat Valentine on Victorious, Grande performed on Broadway in the musical 13. Her other acting credits include a feature role in Nickelodeon’s original TV movie Swindle and voiceover work on the animated Nick series Winx Club. Grande is also signed to Universal Republic Records, and her 2013 breakout single, "The Way" featuring Mac Miller, scored Grande her first Billboard Top 10single.

The press release seems to forget that they had already met in the crossover episode ‘I party with Victorious’.

iCarly

Yes! Finally @AJ
Love this girls… :))

Dillan

I’m excited for this.

I still feel like Nickelodeon should have just kept Victorious. It’s ratings were higher than anything the channel seems to pull now.

Victorious still had life , but 60 episodes is the norm and it wouldn’t sit well with me if it got more episodes than Drake & Josh.

I can’t wait for this. A fresh Dan Schneider show with 2 great characters.

Phil

YAY! I wonder how much the discounts will be on iCarly and Victorious!

I expect the pilot for Sam and Cat to be free on iTunes!!!

Lisa

I really wish Ariana Grande wasn’t in this show. Cat is the most annoying character on Victorious. She was ok the first season, until they dumbed down her character. They really should’ve went with their original idea of giving Jennette McCurdy her own show. I would love to see her in a role outside of Sam.

Twist Of Fate

If it’s true that Nick cancelled Victorious for this, it better be the next Drake & Josh

psychic

Since when are they a dynamic duo? Haven’t they been in only one episode together, and never in the same room?

Joe.

Can they come baby sit me? HAHA!

McCurdian

I’m a McCurdian of Spain, and i’m so prouof our little Nettie <3<3<3

Victorious only got 58 episodes after Nickelodeon decided to cut 2 of the episodes from Season 3 (or 4 in Nickelodeon’s schedule)… I hope they let them do a REAL finale… U_U
Anyways, I’m excited for this show. Both were great characters on their shows.
